Like all other mods :

• Have a careful look at the compatibility list before using it.
• Remove previous version if there is one (in case some files are removed). Remove also older version pre v3.0.0 if you have them :

  • bagolu-c172-bushkit-classic

  • bagolu-c172-bushkit-g1000
• Unzip the provided file below, drop the directory from the zip in your community folder.

  • bagolu-c172-bushkit is the name of the directory

• You can of course use your preferred mod manager to install / activate / deactivate this mod/

Cockpit settings :

You could find two variants in the past, now only one is available since v3.0.0.

The older one were including real files from G1000 and classic versions. With encrypted and inaccessible files, it was getting harder and harder to maintain the mod as-is.

I decided to reuse the interior made for the Reims Rocket / Hawk XPII.

Cockpit is a gauges setup with a choice of radio stacks from simple VFR to advanced Garmin 750 & 650 units.

3D model modifications of the original Asobo Skyhawk plane included :

• large and stable bush wheels
• Sportsman STOL Camber Cuffs on the wings
• Increased flaps angle

Flight model modifications included :

• more power from a STC 210HP 4 cylinders engine
• manual flaps from 0 to 40° (*)
• enhanced brakes

(*) all positions of flaps can be used with an axis or with mouse; they can also be used through 4 positions (with up/down shortcuts)

Flight model is based on reaperS73 work on the C172 STC 210HP STOL G1000 and allows to operate in a STOL mode in bush locations.

Several liveries are included with this plane :
Default livery is a fictional one
Burgondy is inspired by this plane : 172 Taildragger
Green & gold thanks to ANN0V

All dirty liveries have been made by ANN0V

Notes to livery makers :

• From v3.0.0, the plane is like a third variant and requires updates to liveries to be compatible
• Registration numbers are split in two in panel.cfg : you will be able to set different colors for the wing and the side reg.
• Common parts of the plane have the exact same name as the C172 AS1000 model
• New parts have there textures in bush_172_* files (wheels, landing gear...)
• Stickers are baked in the model, if you want to replace with yours, edit the file : BUSH172_STICKERS_ALBD.PNG You can also remove the stickers with a transparent texture file.
• The front of the wings are the sportsman camber cuff, defined in BUSH172_SPORTSMAN_* files.

EzRyder has made a very nice ALLInOne C172 Template. Don't miss that paint kit.

Also, don't miss the blender multi template pack from AIRPAC1
